Dear Henry County Community,
As I reflect on the incredible work accomplished over the past year and throughout the first term of Sheriff Reginald B. Scandrett’s leadership, I feel an immense sense of pride and gratitude. Sheriff Scandrett’s unwavering commitment to transparency, accountability, and modernization has set the stage for a brighter, safer future for Henry County. It has truly been a privilege to serve alongside Sheriff Scandrett in his first term. His vision and dedication have not only transformed the Henry County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) but have also reinforced our agency’s foundation for future success. Over the course of 2021-2024, we have seen growth in every corner of our department, and I am excited to highlight a few areas where we’ve made significant strides. Sheriff Scandrett’s focus on technological advancement has been a game-changer for our operations. Through investments in new systems, we’ve enhanced the safety of both our deputies and the citizens we protect. We are more efficient, responsive, and proactive than ever before. Furthermore, his emphasis on training has fostered an environment of excellence within our ranks, ensuring that every member of our team is well-prepared to meet the challenges of our evolving community. However, it’s not just the internal changes that are transforming the HCSO. Sheriff Scandrett has made it clear that community engagement is at the heart of everything we do. Our outreach programs, youth mentorship initiatives, and public safety education efforts have helped forge stronger connections with the people we serve. We’re not just an enforcement agency – we are a resource, a partner, and a dedicated presence in the lives of Henry County residents. As we move into 2025, the work we’ve done so far has laid the foundation for even greater achievements. Our strengthened partnerships with local, state, and federal agencies have improved collaboration in all aspects of law enforcement, allowing us to respond more effectively to emerging needs. The expanded resources we’ve secured will continue to elevate our service delivery, and we remain fully committed to supporting the health and well-being of both our staff and the community. Looking ahead, I am excited about the path we are on. The Sheriff’s vision for 2025 and beyond offers even more opportunities to build on our successes. Expanding Crisis Intervention programs, leveraging cutting-edge technology, and building stronger community partnerships are just a few of the areas we will continue to focus on. I am particularly proud of the Sheriff’s commitment to supporting our staff, ensuring that they have the resources and care they need to perform their duties to the highest standards. The dedication of our deputies, detention officers, and professional staff is the cornerstone of our success. I am honored to serve alongside each and every member of the HCSO, and I’m thankful for the trust and support of our community. Together, we will continue to move forward in making Henry County a safer, stronger, and more unified place to live.
Thank you for your continued support as we build a better future for all.
Sincerely,
Chief Deputy Michael Yarbrough Henry County Sheriff’s Office M.P.Yarbrough
